Delhi Capitals (DC) registered their second consecutive vi🉐ctory in the Indian ♓Premier League (IPL) 2020 after thumping Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 44 runs, on Frid🔜ay (September 26).
Batting first, Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw started the innings cautiously but upped the run-rate as soon as CSK brought in the spinners. Both of them opened their arms against Piyush Chawla and Ravindra Jadeja to make up for the conservatiꦏv𓆉e start.
The🌊 duo combined 94 runs for the first wicket partnership before Dhꦯawan fell prey to Chawla.
Later on, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant held 💫t𒐪he innings and guided DC to a steep total of 175/3 runs.
Chasing the target, CSK lost a couple of early wickets in the form of Shane Watson and Murali Vijay. Barring Faf du Plessis, who scored🃏 43 of 35 deliveries, none of the batsmen rose to the occasion.
In the end, the MS Dhoni-led side could only make ཧas many as 131/7 in twenty overs.
Although Shaw was adjudged as the ‘Player of the Match’ for his impressive knock, it was Dhawan who stole the show w♛ith his funky glasses in the field.
Kevin Pietersen and other commentators too were left amazed, and all of them expressed their desire to get that ‘uber-cool’ night glasses.
IPL posted the short clip on their official Twitter handle and enquired: “Hey @SDhawan25 where did you get those uber cool glasses from?@KP24 wants to know”. Pietersen replied with laughing emojis.
